Similar to the standard Combat Harness. The only noticeable difference is a protrusion, shaped like the English letter '''I''', filling what would otherwise be a gap between the right and left breastplate. This chest plate is connected to the waist armor of the Elite. The combat advantages of this is unknown, but as an ergonomic feature it would seem to be designed to better the posture of the Elite, making them stand straighter and taller than other Elite counterparts.

Ascetic Armor
The Elite Ascetic Harness.

The Ascetic Harness is a harness for the Elites. Like all Sangheili Combat Harnesses, it is similar in function and form to the UNSC MJOLNIR Armor, and features a dynamic recharging Energy Shield. Its role is that of inducing fear and ceremonial services.

Development and History

The Ascetic armor is often worn by troops during internal crises as its intimidating design assists in keeping order. The Sangheili Ascetic Corps is the best of the best in the Sangheili military, as only the highest scored graduates of Sangheili military schools/academies can be considered for placement in the Ascetics.[1]

Trivia

  • The body is possibly the easiest part of the armor to unlock as many players use melee attacks during games, easily getting them the Up Close and Personal achievement.
  • Even though the Ascetic Helmet comes out farther than any other Elite helmet, it still has the same hitbox as any other Elite helmet, meaning the tusks have no effect relating to gunfire.
